Social anxiety can be debilitating. You might want to expand your social circle and experience more connection in your life, but you feel frozen when you talk to new people. You stumble over your words or even feel too nervous to speak at all. It can feel so intense at times that you opt to just skip events altogether because you usually end up feeling so uncomfortable and discouraged. We think of social anxiety as it impacts our social lives, but it can also make our classes, careers, and dating lives harder. It limits our options and makes our worlds feel small and, at times, very lonely.

As a marriage and family therapist with a multicultural background, I work with couples, families, individuals (16+), and the LGBTQIA+ community facing relationship challenges, cultural assimilation, and identity concerns. I specialize in marital conflicts, separation, intimacy issues, and family communication problems. Passionate about supporting diverse clients, I draw from my own experience of moving from India to the US. I also address anxiety, depression, generational trauma, and family of origin issues. My goal is to help clients improve relationships and family functioning through self-exploration and growth.

Have you ever found yourself unable to feel better, despite past attempts to think your way out and move forward? Like a cycle you can't escape? Is it sometimes hard to "human"- to socialize, get yourself to focus, to navigate sensory overwhelm, or even to communicate to others? Maybe you've seen therapists in the past who seemed to be puzzled by you or not on your wavelength so you felt stuck. Are you looking to get to the root of these challenges and heal them for good instead of chronically coping just to get by? Do you need to make a change, but don't want to simply talk about your feelings? The good news is everyone can heal.

You feel exhausted and stuck. You are disconnected from yourself and others. You’re sick of being on autopilot. You are tired of being brave. You find yourself in the same old patterns. You want to change but you don't know how. You can't help but replay the same painful memories, worries, and negative self-talk in your mind. Maybe you've tried self-care practices, meditation, or yoga and they helped, but you can't shake the feeling that there's more to explore on your healing path. We are here for folks with the desire to look inward and make the changes in their lives that they have been craving.

Being a transparent person and working in the field of addiction has helped me relate and understand others in their recovery journeys. My purpose today is to help others figure out their ways that they want to live a healthier better life and how they can do that with talk therapy. The ideal client would be someone that is open and willing to make changes in their lives and to grow by self reflecting on where they want to go in their future.

Seeking therapy is an invaluable investment in oneself, and I believe it is my job as a therapist to empower clients to find and live their own paths and truths. The path to healing begins with a trusting and accepting therapist-client relationship; I provide a space that recognizes and centers the unique strengths, values, and lived experiences of each individual, and I seek to partner with clients to best meet their needs. Respecting client self-determination is fundamental to my practice, which is grounded in cultural humility and recognizing the ways in which our values and identities form the many facets of who we are.

Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. Brene Brown once said, “Vulnerability sounds like truth and feels like courage. Truth and courage aren’t always comfortable, but they’re never weakness”. Our experiences in life can sometimes leave us feeling sad, angry, confused, lost, and everything in between. Whether you’re struggling with experiences of trauma, depression, anxiety, loss, any relational conflicts, or school difficulties, I’m here to walk alongside you on a path towards vulnerability and compassion for all parts of you. Instead of being who you’ve had to be (because trauma), this journey can bring you to who you’re meant to be.
